The students are aware that the Institute from this year has decided to conduct Chartered Accountants Intermediate and Foundation exams thrice a year which were earlier used to be conducted twice a year and accordingly the application window for applying online for the September 2024 Chartered Accountants Intermediate and Foundation examinations is shortened from 28 days to 17 days in order to accommodate the exam dates for the said examinations thrice a year and to adhere to timelines for various examination processes i.e finalization of examination centres, evaluation of Answer Books and timely declaration of results. The same timeline for opening and closing of examination application window was also made applicable to Chartered Accountants Final and PQC examinations scheduled to be held in November 2024. The Institute hosted the announcement on 18th July 2024 to the prospective candidates of Chartered Accountants Final and PQC November 2024 exams to provide them sufficient time and opportunity to apply online well in advance.

In view of the fact that this shortening of timeline from 28 days to 17 days, being the first such instance for Chartered Accountants Final and PQC examinations and request received from the students regarding the same, it has been decided to re-open the online filling of examination application form for Chartered Accountants Final and Post Qualification Course viz.: Insurance and Risk Management (IRM) Technical Examination and International Taxation – Assessment Test (INTT-AT) for 2 (Two Days) from 11th September 2024 (11.00 AM) to 12th September 2024 (11.59 PM) with late fees (Rs.600/- or US$10) for the benefit of the students as a one- time measure and as a special case only.
